Part of being elite is doing things differently than everybody else and finding competitive advantages ...
We all know that part of destroying a passing attack is in making the QB uncomfortable ...
We all have largely been brought up with the idea that the best way to do that is through pressuring the QB ...
We have also seen instances throughout the history of football where there have been unique ways employed to disrupt ... the Bills/Giants Super Bowl (SB25) is a famous example where the Giants continuously rushed 2 flooding passing lanes ...
In today's modern football defenses are faced with QBs that are multi talented that can beat you with their arms and feet ... take the Rich Rod special play where they run option action with the QB/RB and still have a WR available as a receiving option ... or take the QB that breaks containment and creates big plays with either his feet/arm ...
It's not that I think that we are against blitzing or pushing up the field ... but I think we are definitely strategic about it ... if we blitz up the middle the edges are containing the escape route ...
It's interesting to me to think about the concept ... on one hand it goes against everything we've ever thought ... on the other the implications are super interesting
That's all well and good, but we don't need Ryan Bowman doing that.

This isn't about Bowman ... fixating on Bowman is getting lost in the details and not seeing the bigger picture
I'm hearing some of us? out here need to dig deeper out here.
Digging deeper requires focused effort ... without it is purely speculative

there is definitely something to what teq says about our pass rush philosophy. Gaines has a free rush to the QB and just stops. Similarly watch how wide an angle Jaylen takes.
Given this philosophy you can see why we? did so well against hurts.
They have assignments. When you get in too easily it's often because the O is running a screen play. Our DT's will often drop back looking to disrupt the screen. Of course we sit here and pontificate without ever knowing what defensive play was called.

While I like you three amigos a lot, it is fucking retarded to shit on someone simply because he is a walk on -- especially as husky fans with our WHITE two star legend Emptman ... Ok so he was on scholarship, but still ...
If 81% of our players are walk ons, I would be worried too. But 19% or less and they are playing because they are better than their more highly touted teammates, I could worry less.
